Abstract
The article focuses on Russia's use of cognitive warfare to influence perceptions and decisions regarding its strategic objectives, particularly in the context of its war against Ukraine. It highlights how Russia, alongside countries like China, Iran, and North Korea, employs cognitive warfare to manipulate narratives and shape the actions of its opponents, aiming to undermine Western support for Ukraine. The article discusses the Kremlin's historical reliance on cognitive strategies, rooted in Soviet practices, and emphasizes the importance of recognizing and countering these tactics to prevent Russia from achieving its goals. It concludes that understanding and rejecting the false premises propagated by Russia is crucial for effectively neutralizing its cognitive warfare efforts. [Extracted from the article]
